Metal Gear Solid Brings The Greatest Saga To An HD Screen
By Tony Ibrahim | Wednesday | 22/02/2012
I was first exposed to the Metal Gear Solid saga as a child. I sat before the TV with my eyes wide open, completely blown away by the culminating efforts of an intricate narrative, before-its-time game-play and limitless cinematic appeal.
Now I return to the game as an Adult, versed in the game industry after having sampled countless titles on platforms generations ahead. I proceeded with caution, well aware that the nostalgic affection I have for MGS could be undermined by tedious adulthood.
You're happy to return to the rigid line of sight view because it's joined by the seemingly trivial conversations shared between characters riddled with depth, original missions and the unravelling of a sensationalised conspiracy. I always loved the silly conversations between Snake, Raiden and Otacon, and after a decade of caching, these titles bring those moments back to the surface.
It's the same feeling you get when you turn on an original Nintendo and pop in the classic Super Mario, with its monotone sound effects and its pixelated graphics, because it bridges gap between the person you are now and the giggling child you once were.
Although not as pixelated as Super Mario, the graphics used in the MGS HD series have succumb to obsolescence. The action does have dimension, but it lacks the detail of modern titles. Characters Snake and Raiden appear void of emotion because they have no discernible facial characteristics. Rather, the 'HD' in the title pertains to an increased resolution and frame rate count, and although these don't help facial expressions, they do make game-play smoother.
If you've played the game before you're not going to be absorbed by the 'ground breaking' graphics as you would've been when they were released. There are a few moments when the lip synching falters, while MGS Peace Walker experiences some flushed colours as a result of being stretched from a PSP screen to a TV. These remind you that you're playing a game from a different era, but it's not enough to ruin the glee associated with seeing an old friend.
For the few who were deprived of playing MGS growing up, the HD collection is a good enough iteration and is definitely worth a play, even if it's only for the end-game screen where Otacon's voice wails: "Snake…Snake!…SNNNAAAAAKKKKEEEEEEE."

Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory 2009-36
Title: Heap/integer overflows in font glyph rendering libraries
Impact: Critical
Announced: July 21, 2009
Reporter: Will Drewry
Products: Firefox
Fixed in: Firefox 3.5
Firefox 3.0.12
oCERT security researcher Will Drewry reported a series of heap and integer overflow vulnerabilities which independently affected multiple font glyph rendering libraries. On Linux platforms libpango was susceptible to the vulnerabilities while on OS X CoreGraphics was similarly vulnerable. An attacker could trigger these overflows by constructing a very large text run for the browser to display. Such an overflow can result in a crash which the attacker could potentially use to run arbitrary code on a victim's computer.
The open-source nature of Linux meant that Mozilla was able to work
with the
libpango maintainers to implement the correct fix
in version 1.24 of that system library which was distributed with OS
security updates. On Mac OS X Firefox works around the CoreGraphics
flaw by limiting the length of text runs passed to the system.
- https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480134

Court sides with Comcast in Net Neutrality appeal
FCC's authority called into question
Internet Service Provided Comcast can safely return to throttling subscribers' bandwidth as a U.S. appeals court overturned a Federal Communications Commission mandate that required that the company provide service indiscriminately to its users.
The decision itself raises some interesting questions about the FCC's authority and its role in regulating neutrality. According to the U.S. Court of Appeals' 3-0 decision, the FCC has not been expressly given the "untrammeled freedom" by Congress to regulate a provider so directly.
The FCC states that the court doesn't disagree with net neutrality or the equal treatment of subscribers and that the commission is able to pursue other means of regulation. One such immediate fix would involve simply reclassifying ISPs as common carriers, which are subject to more regulation.
That said, the decision does, at least for now, allow ISPs to set bandwidth caps, throttle peer-to-peer file sharing and treat their customers as they see fit. And the decision comes at a time when the FCC is preparing a plan that would both increase the overall speed of broadband and increase the coverage area.
What do you readers think? Is this a minor setback for the FCC? Is it the natural flow of a market-driven service? Or will the overall effect of the ruling go unnoticed? Share your comments below.
ISP throttlingThrottling based on recent volume is OK as long as this is the only criteria and it is applied to all users equally. It seems a reasonable method to provide better service for a shared resource. Throttling based on what the user is doing or what product or service is being used should not be allowed, IMO. This would make it too easy for an ISP to favor its own services over those of competitors.

Dan Reeves: Tom Moore hire a 'great move' by Cardinals
Originally published: Jan 28, 2013 - 4:10 pm
Hired to be a part of head coach Bruce Arians' staff, the 74-year-old Moore brings an accomplished resum� to the team, and by all accounts the Cardinals are in for a real treat.
"I played against Tom, Tom's a great coach that's been successful everywhere he's been," NFL analyst and former coach Dan Reeves told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf Monday. "He came from the Vince Lombardi school of starting out as a football player, and Tom is very bright; coached one of the better quarterbacks in the league for many, many years, and Peyton Manning will tell you that Tom's a big part of his success.
"That's a great move by Bruce."
Reeves went on to say he believes "nobody did a better job than Bruce Arians" as a coach last year, adding he thinks the Coach of the Year award should have gone to the man who guided the Colts to a 9-3 record while Chuck Pagano was battling leukemia.
"Bruce Arians could have very easily won that award."

Retired General H. Norman Schwarzkopf has died. #kuwait #q8
Retired General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, who commanded the U.S international coalition that drove Saddam Hussein's forces out of Kuwait in 1991, has died.
Schwarzkopf became a household name while he oversaw the buildup of 700,000 coalition troops, including more than 540,000 U.S. forces, after Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990.

In Ridgway: Moonwalk Starry Night
Since July, the Town of Ridgway has hosted Moonwalks – monthly art outings timed to the full moon. The event was designed to be a series of gallery tours; so far, the evening strolls, and an outing by bicycle, have surveyed the historic business district and offered tours of working artists' studios. This month's Moonwalk gets more interactive. The gallery tours are gone for now, replaced by…well, who knows? Public art, the exact results of which remain to be seen, since the art is being created not only in public, but by the public, beginning at 4 p.m. this Saturday in Hartwell Park. There will be a community colored-glass mosaic project, pumpkin carving, a mural project, and yarn bombs, a form of "guerilla knitting" in which local landmarks – tree trunks, benches, even city bridges and cars – are whimsically festooned in brilliantly colored blankets, sweaters and other knitwear. So the outdoors can dress up for winter, just like we do. (The event's organizers are asking knitters to please bring along extra scarves to help decorate the park.)
After the art making, around 6 p.m., there will be a short lantern and "pumpkin glow" parade, followed by an outdoor screening of The Goonies (if the weather's too chilly, the movie will be shown indoors). Plus food and drink for kids and adults. What isn't on the menu: where the art will eventually reside. It's too soon to tell, said Diedra Silbert, community and economic-development coordinator for the Town of Ridgway; it depends what the artists come up with. Next month, Silbert will help coordinate a Moonwalk that will explore alley poetry and art in Ridgway – creations that reside, quite literally, off-the-beaten path. To date, there is no map to point you to these works. "We want to keep that sense of discovery," Silbert said. "The best part is when you just come upon something." Or just happen to make it, in the spontaneous spirit of this Saturday. You never know where the creative spark will take you, one step at a time.
Altius String Quartet in Montrose
The Plowman national chamber music competition, "one of the most prestigious events of its kind," according to an article about a Plowman winner on the Yale University School of Music's website, took place this past April.
The Altius Quartet took first prize in Piano and Strings. "We went crazy," says the group's cellist, Zachary Reaves. "It was our first-ever competition. We were just excited to be there."
They'll play Grand Junction this Friday night, and in Montrose this Sunday afternoon, as season opener for the Western Slope Concert Series, now in its 15th year. The Series is sponsored by the musical Mientka family of Grand Junction; Kathryn Mientka, its grande dame and co-founder, along with her late husband, Tyne Mientka, will accompany Altius on Dvorak's hauntingly beautiful Piano Quintet in A Major, Op. 81, first performed in Prague in January, 1888. The piece nearly didn't make it to fruition. Dvorak had grown dissatisfied with another Quintet in A Major he'd composed 16 years earlier and, despite its being well-received by the public, destroyed the manuscript. Luckily, one of his friends rescued the pieces, and from the remnants, a decade-and-a-half later, Dvorak composed a new work. The program also includes Schubert's String Quartet No. 14 in D, also known as Death and the Maiden, written after the composer had struggled through a serious illness and realized he was dying. The work was first performed in a private home, and wasn't even published until three years after Schubert passed away. Yet today, it is one of the most famous pieces of chamber music.
The program concludes with a quartet by contemporary composer Phillip Glass. So many of the great chamber music composers are from Central Europe (Beethoven, Haydn) or Eastern Europe (Bartok, Dvorak) or the U.S.S.R. (Shostakovich), Reaves said. "It's always nice to play a quartet by a U.S. composer, especially one who's still alive." The Montrose concert is at the Pavilion, at 3 p.m. Tickets are available online, at junctionconcerts.com, or at the door.
Michel Ocelot Movie in Telluride
The Telluride Horror Show has come and gone, but what about a slightly scary movie for the little ones? A film that adult sensibilities might take to, too? The Telluride Film Festival's Sunday at the Palm series screens Tales of the Night, from the critically acclaimed French animator Michel Ocelot, a week from this Sunday. The director specializes in folk tales, and the ones here are exotic excursions into the mildly creepy dark, including "Night of the Werewolf" and "Jon Jon in the Land of Not Knowing," set in a land of the dead. The movie is a New York Times Critics' Pick. "The narratives – involving princesses, sorcerers, dragons, talking animals – are familiar," wrote the paper's critic, Andy Webster. "But Mr. Ocelot invigorates them with lyricism: silhouettes evoke shadow plays, and often brilliant palettes reflect the cultures presented. 'Tales' happens to be his first foray into 3-D. But his craft needed little tweaking; his gentle sensibility yields abundant pleasures by itself." The 84-minute film screens at the Palm Theatre Sunday, Oct. 27 at 4 p.m. Admission is free, as are Halloween treats.

Quarterly Seminar Series - April 2014
Do global market forces slow or grow habitat loss?
Who: Eric Lambin, School of Earth Sciences and Woods Institute for the Environment, Stanford University and Earth and Life Institute, University of Louvain, Belgium
When: April 3, 2014
Time: 4:30 PM
Where: WWF Conference Center; 1250 24th St N.W.; Washington, D.C. 20037
Eric Lambin divides his time between the University of Louvain (Belgium) and Stanford University, were he occupies the Ishiyama Provostial Professorship at the School of Earth Sciences and the Woods Institute for the Environment. His research tries to better understand patterns, causes, and impacts of land use changes in different parts of the world. He was Chair of the international scientific project Land Use and Land Cover Change (LUCC) from 1999 to 2005. He also contributed to the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment. He was awarded the 2009 Francqui prize and is Foreign Associate at the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. His current research tries to understand how economic globalization affects global land use, and the trade-offs between agricultural production and nature conservation.
Join WWF and Eric Lambin as he discusses whether market forces are a friend or foe to biodiversity conservation.
Seminar Abstract: A central challenge for sustainability is how to preserve forest ecosystems and their rich biodiversity while enhancing food production. This challenge for developing countries confronts the force of economic globalization, which seeks cropland and triggers deforestation. Land use changes are increasingly associated with commodities produced for global markets. Globalization can be harnessed to increase land use efficiency rather than leading to uncontrolled land use expansion. The final consumers of agricultural and wood commodities, the corporations involved in their transformation and retailing, and civil society show a growing concern for sustainability. These actors are starting to express a preference for goods whose supply chain has been certified as meeting sustainability criteria. These private actors have designed policy interventions to influence land use through global markets. I will discuss the effectiveness of the main market-based interventions to promote sustainable land use. Overall, there is a lack of rigorous studies on the effectiveness of new, private land use policies, but available evidence suggests some potentially positive direct and indirect beneficial impacts.
2013 Fuller Symposium: Forces for Nature
The 2013 Fuller Symposium explored how local and indigenous communities can empower themselves by managing their own natural resources—and in turn become a global force for conservation. This year's one day event took place on November 13, 2013 at the National Geographic Society's headquarters in Washington, D.C.
2012 Fuller Symposium: Conservation Crime
Global leaders shared their insights on the growing crisis of wildlife crime at the 2012 Fuller Symposium. The symposium was held on November 14, 2012 at the National Geographic Society in Washington, D.C.

Though Aipom is certainly very cool, it's not very useful. That's a shame, but it's fun to use on favorites teams and the like.
Aipom really cannot do much damage, so Choice Band is one option. Thunder Wave can be used if you know some form of sweeper will be switching in, but that's unlikely. Its nature can either be Adamant or Jolly—whichever you wish. Pickup and Run Away are both entirely useless, so it doesn't matter which one you use.
Aipom can run an "annoyer" set. Annoyers don't work, and this is no exception, but with Aipom's really limited choices it was figured that this should be included. Paralyze, steal an opponent's item, lower its accuracy, and then try to flinch it with Astonish. It probably won't work, especially since they can just switch out, but that's the standard counter for any "annoyer". Return is a more reliable offensive choice.
This only works if you load your team with Pokemon that have high base Attack stats (some good choices are Metagross, Tyranitar, and Slaking). This will make Beat Up do a ton of damage against Blissey, and with Thunder/Thunderbolt, it can also be used against Skarmory. Feel free to use any two moves for the remaining slots, but Counter and Taunt are good for kicks.
Substitute can be used to activate your Berry, as you are faster than anything after an Agility. Taunt attempts at Hazing and phazing. Snatch can be a nice surprise for that Pokemon that thinks Aipom is setup bait, and might even let it pass something useful, like Calm Minds or Swords Dances.
Other Options
Aipom is really limited in its options and not really usable in the standard environment. You can use it as the recipient in a Baton Pass chain for fun, but the same can be said for anything but Ditto and Unown.
Checks and Counters
Any kind of sweeper like Aerodactyl and Salamence can easily handle Aipom, but the little monkey can be annoying when it gives those fast sweepers a Thunder Wave. Basically any standard Pokemon can defeat Aipom with little trouble.

The only problem Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra had with Monday night's 102-96 victory over the Detroit Pistons at AmericanAirlines Arena was with himself.
Spoelstra got a game-high 30 points, 10 rebounds and five assists from guard Dwyane Wade, but there was another number he was not too happy about.
"The only knock was on me -- I ended up playing him 37 minutes," Spoelstra said of Wade, who has battled knee soreness this season and was recently rested for four consecutive games.
"I would have liked to keep his minutes a little bit down, but I just couldn't take him out in the fourth quarter. He was in such a great rhythm."
Wade made 13 of his 19 shots from the floor -- including 1-of-1 from 3-point range, which is not his forte -- and 3-of-4 from the foul line.
"I was very aggressive from the start," said Wade, who had nine points in each of the first two quarters.
Many of his baskets came off of passes from forward LeBron James, who nearly had his first triple-double of the season.
After three quarters, he had 22 points and 11 assists and needed just two rebounds for the triple-double. But those boards never came as he finished with 24 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds.
Yet, in two instances in the fourth quarter, it appeared that James would get the rebounds that ultimately went to teammates -- Wade and guard Ray Allen.
"I think LeBron is working on the all-time record for near misses on triple-doubles," Spoelstra joked.
Turning serious, Spoelstra said the rebounds for most of the night were so "hotly contested" that James' teammates could not leave those caroms to chance against Detroit's physical front line.
"They weren't trying to steal rebounds," Spoelstra said of James' teammates. "The ball just happened to drop to them. But as long as LeBron is playing good basketball, that's all I care about."
Detroit won the rebound battle 51-44 but trailed by 15 points with 3:41 left to play. The Pistons scored the game's final six points to make the contest appear closer than it was for most of the game's final minutes.
"I think we matched their intensity," Pistons forward Josh Smith said of the Heat. "They are the world champs -- we have to play almost perfect (to beat them)."
With the win, the Heat (34-17) avenged one of their four home losses this season. Detroit won in Miami 107-97 on Dec. 3.
Detroit (19-28) had its two-game win streak snapped and lost ground on idle Charlotte (21-28), which currently holds the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
Miami forward Chris Bosh added 17 points and seven rebounds.
Detroit was led by guard Brandon Jennings, who had 26 points and seven assists.
The Pistons got 17 points and 11 rebounds from forward Greg Monroe. Pistons center Andre Drummond also had a double-double -- 12 points and 12 rebounds.
The Heat led 32-29 after the first quarter. Smith missed his first five shots, and Drummond played just two minutes after picking up a pair of quick fouls. But Jennings' 13 points in the quarter kept Detroit in the game.
Miami led 63-57 at the half, outshooting Detroit 52 percent to 38 percent. The Pistons were issued three technical fouls in the period -- to coach Maurice Cheeks, Smith and Monroe -- as the Heat led by as many as 12 points.
"Referees are part of the game," Cheeks said. "You have to learn how to deal with it. ... I thought we did that for the most part."
Detroit won the third period, cutting Miami's lead to 84-80. Perhaps that had something to do with the fact that Drummond played all 12 minutes and did not pick up his fourth foul. He had four points and an impressive nine rebounds in the quarter.
"In the second half, I thought Andre learned how not to pick up those fouls," Cheeks said of Drummond.
The Pistons picked up a fourth technical in the fourth quarter, but this one was split between Jennings and Heat guard Norris Cole, both of whom did a bit of pushing at each other.
NOTES: The Pistons entered Monday ranked first in the NBA in offensive rebounds (14.6) and second in points in the paint (51.7). That is what happens when you start a front line that features 6-10, 270-pound C Andre Drummond, 6-11, 250-pound F Greg Monroe and 6-9, 225-pound F Josh Smith. ... Drummond leads the NBA in offensive rebounding and has a career-high 34 double-doubles, which ranks second in the league. He is also third in the league in field-goal percentage and overall rebounding. ... Heat F Chris Bosh shot over 50 percent in four straight games before a 2-of-11 game against the Knicks on Saturday. ... Heat F LeBron James has spoken out a few times lately about how Miami's decision not to re-sign G Mike Miller after last season has negatively impacted the team. Miller was allowed to leave due to luxury-tax issues. ... Next up for the Heat is a six-game road trip that begins Wednesday against the Los Angeles Clippers. ... Detroit's two-game road trip ends Wednesday at Orlando.

RICHMOND, Va., Feb. 11, 2014 – James Madison freshman diver Olivia Lehman (Dayton, Ohio/Centreville) is the Colonial Athletic Association Diver of the Week as announced by the league on Tuesday. This is the first conference honor won by Lehman.
Lehman placed first out of 19 divers on the one-meter board in last weekend's Clemson Diving Invitational. She scored a career-best 293.50 in the event which is good for the sixth-best score in program history on the one-meter. It also qualified the rookie diver for the NCAA Zone Diving Meet, making her the fourth Duke to qualify this season.
On the three-meter board, Lehman placed 13th with a score of 234.85.
This is the fifth time this season a JMU diver has claimed the weekly conference accolade after redshirt freshman Taryn McLaughlin (Hudson, Ohio/Hudson) won it five times previously.
Northeastern's Sophie Browne is the CAA's Swimmer of the Week.
The Dukes travel to Charlottesville, Va., this weekend for one last tune-up ahead of the CAA Championships. They'll compete in the Cavalier Invitational at the UVA Aquatic and Fitness Center on Friday and Saturday.

Stepping Out
Masked by stinking anaerobic mud, fuggy heat, clouds of mosquitoes, and acre upon acre of flooded forest, mangroves are as mysterious as they are vital to our coasts.
Paddling south from highway 41 along the Turner River, the South Florida scenery quickly turns positively prehistoric. Schools of mullet and yard-long gar glide below my kayak, while black willows and pond-apple trees lean out from the banks of the thin, tea-colored waterway. Around a bend in the river, a dark, scaly sentinel lies warily at the water's edge; luckily my guide, David Harraden, who has been paddling these waterways for more than 30 years, and I ease past the 12-foot alligator without incident.
A few further turns and the meandering river reveals a different forest than our launch site's freshwater cypress swamp. A crazily arching latticework--the distinctive aerial prop roots of red mangrove trees--sprouts from the muck and weaves a near-impenetrable buttress comprised of boughs and branches. Harraden, an avid outdoorsman who owns an eco-hotel in nearby Everglades City, ducks into a tiny tunnel boring through the thicket, a passage that's also used by gators and river otters and serves as a flyway for belted kingfishers and egrets.
[gallery:8106|align:left|caption:GALLERY Explore more mangrove photos.]
The corridor is too narrow to paddle, so we pole and pull our way along, scattering water striders and shaking dew-covered spider webs. In the rising heat of a late spring morning, the shade provided by the mangrove forest makes things perceptibly cooler than out on the open water. This labyrinth lasts a quarter-mile, maybe longer; on such a swampy slalom course, it's impossible to know. The songs of unseen birds--the shrill whistling of ospreys, the big buzz of tiny palm warblers--fill the still air. Only shards of sunlight penetrate the ancient canopy's tangle of limbs and roots. I half-expect to see dinosaurs. Wait, that gator does count.
"It's a mystical place,'' says Harraden, in the hushed, reverential voice of someone speaking inside a cathedral. "The more you immerse yourself, the longer you stay, the more beautiful it becomes.''
Admittedly, the beauty to be found here amid the stinking anaerobic mud and fuggy heat and clouds of mosquitoes is subtle. This landscape has none of the undeniable drama seen at many other nature destinations, from the splendor of a soaring California sequoia grove to the Crayola colors of Belize's barrier reef. Yet these humble mangroves are freakishly resilient, with an ability to survive, and even thrive, in a harsh tidewater environment that would kill any other tree. A closer look at this landscape, with its flocks of wading birds and brigades of scuttling crabs, its schools of juvenile fish and gantlets of lurking alligators, only hints at their vital value as nursing, feeding, spawning, and sheltering grounds. Mangroves also stabilize coastlines, filter sediments, and mitigate storm damage.
The three different types of Florida mangroves--red, black, and white--have each developed a magic alchemy for surviving in salty, oxygen-depleted soils created from a soggy mix of sand, silt, clay, and detritus. Closest to shore--and sometimes even erupting in the midst of shallow bays--red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle) are distinguished by stiltlike prop roots that provide stability in the face of wind and tide. The roots are also pocked with small openings called lenticels through which oxygen moves into and out of the plant. Salt is expelled at the roots as well as by the leaves, which are then dropped. Black mangroves (Avicennia germinans), which typically grow on slightly higher ground than Rhizophora, feature clusters of pencil-sized aerial roots called pneumatophores that function like snorkels to supply oxygen to the plant during high tides. These trees also excrete salt in visible crystals on their leaves. White mangroves (Laguncularia racemosa), which grow above the high-tide line and usually have no need for specialized prop or air roots, have a gland at the base of each leaf that expels salt and sugar.
These adaptations are why mangroves flourish along tropical and subtropical shorelines and tidal estuaries. They grow in more than 120 countries and territories, from Indonesia, which has one-fifth of the planet's estimated 37 million remaining mangrove acres, to the tiny South Pacific island nation of Nauru, which holds just five acres. The Bengal tiger's last stronghold is also the biggest mangrove forest in the world, the Sundarbans of India and Bangladesh.
North America's most impressive mangrove forest is found along Florida's southwest coast, extending from Flamingo, at the very tip of the peninsula, all the way to Marco Island, roughly 100 miles to the northwest. Known as the Ten Thousand Islands, this maze of mangrove islets, tidal creeks, and shallow bays has long been a haven for wildlife, including large populations of wading birds and a viable population of American crocodiles, listed in Florida as a threatened species. Rumrunners and dope smugglers have also used its bewilderment to their advantage.
A handful of communities make a more legal go of it with sportfishing, airboat rides, and the public's appetite for stone crab. In this half-drowned world, boats are necessary. The vagaries of tide and weather dictate movement. Everyone is at the mercy of heat and bugs. It's a hard-knock life, even for scientists studying the biggest wilderness east of the Mississippi.

Last night on HBO's BAD, Kermit Cintron takes a shot to the temple, clearly from a punch at the end of the 7th, I think. He thinks its a head butt and takes a knee, accepting the refs count up to eight before arguably rising at ten. The initial decision is a knock out.
Whether he beat the count or the bell rang or whatever is not my problem with this. Apparently, Cintron, his corner and whoever else get the ref to change his mind and the fight continues !
Mr. Lipton especially I'd like to get some feedback from, just hope you take several deep breaths before watching if you haven't seen it. You ain't gonna be pleased.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Lovely Product!
Soft and Sweet Save the Date Cards I am always skeptical of purchasing online, so I was even more so excited when MagnetStreet sends you a sample for free. That way I am able to gauge the texture, color, style, thickness of paper, etc. Once I received it, BAM, I knew I had to order. Once my purchase came in for my wedding, it stopped my heart: It was presented in a wonderful box, enclosed properly and beautiful, and it hit me that this is real. To see the very first print out with our names together...I started having heart palpitations, LITERALLY, laughing! The paper was nice and thick, the texture wonderful, the colors bright, everything I wanted. I would definitely order from MagnetStreet again, they have totally proved themselves to me with quality products and wonderful pricing.
Love my Save the Date magnets!
Soft and Sweet Save the Date Magnets I looked at several Save the Dates before I finally decided to go with MagnetStreet, and I'm so happy I did. They just arrived a few days ago and I am in love. They are so cute and really great quality. I love that I was able to personalize the colors to match my wedding! I cannot wait to send them out! Thank you MagnetStreet! :)
Chic & Sweet
Soft and Sweet Save the Date Magnets I absolutely love my save the dates! They are pretty and sophisticated with a modern twist. The style goes great with my spring wedding theme and color scheme.
Great Product
Soft and Sweet Save the Date Magnets We changed the colors on the design to make it pop more and it turned out great! Very happy with the final product.
Save the Date Magnets
Soft and Sweet Save the Date Magnets I was so happy with the way my save the date magnets turned out. I opted for the Just One to see how it looked before ordering all of them at once and it was delivered within days of ordering. I was able to personalize my own colors and text. I noticed that the text became too large for the area easily, and I may have had the text in the lower right corner larger if I could have, but I really think it turned out fantastic anyway. The presentation of the items upon delivery was notable. They arrived in a high quality box that I have since used to keep track of stamps and other paper products. I also received 10 extra magnets, which was a pleasant surprise. In addition, a First Look book was included for invitations with a few samples, which was fun. The quality of the magnets is excellent. I did notice that some black flecks were shedding from the edges as we stuffed the envelopes, but that wasn't really anything to complain about. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product!

7 tips for telecommuting from a coffee shop
If you're a road warrior, freelancer or Internet entrepreneur, the local coffee shop isn't just a place to get a pick-me-up before heading to the office — sometimes, it is your office. But that doesn't mean you should treat it like one.
When working at a coffee shop, it's important to observe basic etiquette. You may be there to work, but others use coffee shops to chat with friends, read the newspaper or study.
Follow these seven tips to keep from annoying those around you:
Buy something.
You wouldn't occupy a table at a restaurant or pub without buying something, so why should you treat a coffee shop differently? Heath Boice-Pardee, EdD, community owner of the PhoenixConnect® academic social network for the University of Phoenix School of Advanced Studies, says, "Coffee shops are multi-use facilities, but they aren't offices or libraries."
Take business calls outside.
It's not just good manners — it's professionalism. "Business clients want to be your first priority and don't want to fight for your attention," Boice-Pardee says. "If it sounds like there's a party going on in the background, you risk offending them."
Use headphones for audio.
Headphones make it easy for you to drown out background noise and concentrate on your work, but Boice-Pardee notes that they also "allow your business to remain your business." Avoid subjecting your fellow coffee shop patrons to the latest viral video, your MP3 collection or video conference calls, and you'll also retain your privacy.
Keep your belongings organized.
Leave room for those around you by stashing your personal items in a backpack or messenger bag when not in use. "If you really need to spread out," Boice-Pardee says, "do it at home."
Minimize the amount of outlets you use.
You're not the only one who might need to plug in, and electrical outlets in coffee shops are scarce. Boice-Pardee's recommendation: Use one outlet for your laptop and charge your other devices at home or via USB cables.
Clean up after yourself.
During peak hours, baristas have little time to wipe up tables. Help out coffee shop employees by throwing away your trash when you leave. "Act as if you're representing your company," Boice-Pardee says, "and the coffee table is your desk."
Take a small table.
When you're alone, don't sit at a table meant for four or more people. "Sit at a small table near a window or by the restrooms," Boice-Pardee encourages. "Though you play an important role in coffee shop culture, you don't own the place."

The UCLA Children's Comfort Care Program (CCCP) is dedicated to alleviating pain and other symptoms that children with serious and life threatening illnesses experience. Our overall goal is to provide the best quality of life possible for our pediatric patients and their families.
Our Children's Comfort Care Team provides recommendations for many different types of treatments –both medical and nonmedical– to help with pain, nausea, anxiety, and other discomforts associated with serious illness.
In order to provide holistic care‡ and support to your child and family, our team of medical, behavioral, and spiritual care clinicians will work very closely with your child's healthcare team.
Working with UCLA healthcare providers and reaching out to the community as well, the CCCP promotes awareness about the importance of palliative care, improves quality of care, and supports research for children with serious illnesses.
What is Pediatric Palliative Care?
Pediatric Palliative Care includes services and medical care that are intended to improve the quality of life and reduce symptoms, such as pain, in patients who have a life-threatening or terminal condition. The AAP supports starting palliative care along with curative care, if appropriate, at the time of diagnosis. As part of palliative care, providers are encouraged to work with patients and their families to develop care plans that are consistent with patient and family wishes.1
World Health Organization's (WHO) definition of palliative care appropriate for children and their families is as follows; the principles apply to other pediatric chronic disorders2 (WHO; 1998a):
- mind and spirit, and also involves giving support to the family.
- It begins when illness is diagnosed, and continues regardless of whether or not a child receives treatment directed at the disease.
- Health providers must evaluate and alleviate a child's physical, psychological, and social distress.
- Effective palliative care requires a broad multidisciplinary approach that includes the family and makes use of available community resources; it can be successfully implemented even if resources are limited.
- It can be provided in tertiary care facilities, in community health centers and even in children's homes.
‡ Care that integrates all different aspects of a patient's needs: psychological, physical and social.

The smell is likely from bacteria and it may be in the well or in the plumbing. If it comes and goes, I'd more suspect the plumbing. There is a lot of discussion on the topic in this forum.
About six years ago, we did a major addition to our house in Florida resulting in needing to add another septic. Neighbor behind us had a well on her property too close to where our second septic was being put. We asked neighbor if she would consider moving her existing well a little further away on her property if we paid for a new pump and drilling of a new well and allow her to select the company to do the work. She obliged. I believe she selected the company her did her initial well. Her lot is probably between 1/4 to 1/3 acre, to give you size of area, and the distance from her old well to where she drilled her new well is probably 50-70 ft. away. We had city waters and assumed most others around did as well, but found out in the middle of the renovation she did not. Anyway, flash forward now.
About four months ago (remember the new well was done in 2008), she informed my husband that her water has a rotten egg smell that comes and goes, and all she knows is she never had it with her old well. She didn't specify to my husband if the smell started immediately after she got the new well or exactly when it started. My husband was so taken aback to just be hearing about this years later, so he didn't think to ask if her if she did things like contact the company that did the new well, or verify exactly when the smell started. Personally, I would have to believe she would have called them if it was anytime in the months after getting the new well, but regardless, here we are, hearing about this from an elderly lady who is wishing she never moved her well for the couple behind her doing a renovation, even if her old well could have started having the same problem. Guess that's my reason for this post. Could this have happened in her old pump, too, meaning, could she just out of the blue, started having a rotten egg smell? Additionally, regardless of that answer, what is some advice I can offer to her to help get rid of this smell. I'm trying to be sympathetic. Thanks. For what it's worth, I lived in a house located about three blocks from hers/mine growing up, and we had a well, and it had a little smell to the water (some friends said smelled like rotten eggs). Plus, a house a mile from here that we rented while renovating our house had so much iron in the water, it would turn my hair. Just saying, the water around here has some strong minerals in it, for sure, but apparently her old well water 70 ft away didn't bother her and she wishes for that again!

Was the old well legally abandoned/cemented up? if not, hook back to it if u want. so long as any inspections are done.. the new well is really only needed if she sells the place.
sorry, u said 70' away and i thought u said 70' deep. u can hook back to the old one if it is a deeper well made into a confined aquifer. besides that, it sounds like the well has a little sulfur which is normal for florida and can be treated several ways. i prefer air injection with or without a backwashing carbon filter depending on water usage.

Wouldn't the neighbor still be skeptical about it (the old pump) being too close to our septic? How close is too close?
so long as its a deeper well it would be fine, however i understand how hard it might be to convince an elderly woman of that. matter of fact its probably not even worth it if theres a chance she'll get it in her head it could be bad for her. might as well use the new. before doing anything drastic i'd open her spigot, let it run several minutes, take a sample and have it tested to be sure... then you can decide the next step, and if you want to take it.
I have found out a little more from our neighbor since my post. She never contacted the company that did the new well. Why? Beats me, and didn't want to badger her about that. She also told my husband they had it tested to see if it was safe to drink and she said that it was. She didn't elaborate about who or what kind of test they did. I'm no water expert, but have to believe, different people or companies, will tell you whether something is safe to drink or not, meaning, as long as it doesn't have E Coli and might have tons of bleach like chemicals, they might deem that safe to drink....Just saying. If I am the one to go to her and ask to have her water tested, who would I use? My sister recommended I get a cup of water right where it comes from the well and take that to a place nearby where we live called Flower Labs. Don't know what they do? Would this be fine or do you have another recommendation. I only ask these details because prior to us remodeling, I had been on city water (yes, I was fine with my chlorinated drinking water--ha), but we put in a Evian Reverse Osmosis system in our house who of course, told us how horrible the city water we were on was. By the way, I grew up nearby on well water that wasn't on any system. I'm just saying, depending on whose doing the testing, they may deem something bad or not bad, or safe, not safe. I'd rather use someone who just is unbiased, like the county will say the city water is fine, the water system people will say its bad, etc.....
Thanks. Another something to consider. I think I'm going to have her water tested first, hopefully by some unbiased water testing or environmental water place. Does such a thing exist? Would the testing reveal what your are offering as a possible contaminant, or rather that it is contaminated and finding the source would be the next mission. For what it's worth, she did tell my husband that they had the water tested to see if it was safe to drink and she said it was.
We are talking about two different things. If the old well was not sealed, it could allow the aquifer to become contaminated by your septic field. That is a health issue.
The new well or some portion of the plumbing could have a harmless bacteria culture that produces that rotten egg smell. The bacteria is in abundance and can very easily be introduced into the well or the plumbing. Determining where the source of smell is coming from is the first step in mitigating it.
You could take a sample to the local health dept and have it tested for contaminates, sounds like the new well just has a little sulfur.. mine has alot. probably getting water from a different spot than the original well. best way to TRY and get the same exact water in a new well as the old is to get the same guy to install the new.. and one who keeps good records. still no guarantee.
Usually if the well is the source then the smell doesn't really come and go. It could just be in the plumbing but until some investigation is done on site, this is all just conjecture.
might seem like it comes and goes to a single older lady who probably uses 10 gallons a day. light sulfur can easily be overlooked but will sometimes show itself more say first thing in the morning, hot water side, higher demands, etc.
either way, a good well/plumbing chlorination wouldnt hurt.

text: Frequently problems like this are due to a broken ground connection. Usually the ground, or common wire, is daisy chained from valve to valve with connections made in special wire nuts filled with silicon. All it takes is for that connection to be pulled apart and that valve is dead. The other will work because their ground is still intact.

The UIC College of Dentistry believes that we need to educate a dentist who is fundamentally different in professional capabilities from his/her predecessors. We believe this because the world is changing rapidly. Illinoisans today are dramatically more culturally diverse than ever before. And, there is a groundswell of growing public opinion that Illinois dentists must redress the disparities in oral healthcare access that exist in Illinois and across the United States.
Dental practice is also changing rapidly. As our society is aging dramatically, our patients are older and sicker, living with chronic systemic health problems and subsisting on complex polypharmaceutical regimes. Dental practice has become more "business-like" than ever before, creating almost daily professional ethical dilemmas for dentists. A computerized dental practice office is now routine, and the computer will continue to revolutionize dental practice in the future (e.g. digital radiography, artificial intelligence-based decision-making, CAD/CAM prosthodontic restoration fabrication, etc.) Human genomics knowledge discovery will lead to heretofore-unimaginable innovations in diagnosis and therapy (e.g. salivary diagnostics for systemic diseases; biomimetics; genetically engineered oral tissue replacement, etc.)
The UIC College of Dentistry has determined that our graduates of the 21st Century must be competent to:
The College provides a wealth of learning experiences that ensure our students achieve these competencies before graduation.
Our Group Practice Clinical Education Model replicates the "real world" of dental practice within the College clinical setting. Three vertically-integrated group dental practices, comprised of International Dentist Degree Program students, fourth-year, third-year, and second-year dental students are aligned with interdisciplinary teams of faculty who are lead by a "Managing Partner" and supported by dental assistants and front desk receptionists. Adult rehabilitative dentistry is provided to our patients in these group practice clinics. (Pediatric Dentistry, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, and Radiology learning experiences are provided in discipline-specific clinic rotations.) The group practice clinics have been equipped with chairside computers to operate an electronic patient record-keeping system. Contemporary instrument tray sterilization and dispensing systems support this "real world" clinical environment. Each clinic has been completely renovated and has integrated technology at each operatory.
Students learn how to evaluate the dental literature in a systematic way, employing computer technology to answer patient treatment questions. An example of such a question is: "For a patient requesting implant therapy, does tobacco smoking affect the osseointegration potential of endosseous implants?"
This program prepares students to be multiculturally competent to meet the needs of traditionally underserved populations in diverse community settings and community-based clinics, and provides support for increased underrepresented minority and financially disadvantaged dental student enrollment and retention. The program provides community-based clinical health promotion experiences for students in a 60-day community-based clinical experience in the fourth year.
Students engage in group discussions of patient care scenarios, employing professional ethical principles to explore solutions to real-life patient care ethical dilemmas.

i don´t know if any of you picked up on the news that Maria will not participate in the Hong Kong Invitational after all, she feels it´s more important for her to take part of a wta tournament, in order to collect ranking points which will help her get back among the top 5 in the rankings during the next year.
i think this is great news, a step in the right direction towards the place where she belongs.
I hope we soon get more info on the subject, i think sydney could be a tournament to look out for, taking her overall ambitions into consideration. It she enter the top ten within the first six months of next year she will only have the opportunity to attend two 200.000$ tournaments, and we all know that Birmingham is mandatory in her book, which pretty much excludes all the other tournaments taking place as a part of the aussie open warm up.
Thanx for the news! [H] I agree it's the right step in the present circumstances. I, too, like the idea of Sydney--they have a clean draw and I'm at ease with them. Brisbane not so much, though that provides a week off before the AO and Sydney is right before it.
If she were looking for a smaller venue, I'd urge her to consider Auckland. The Kiwis would love it and I bet midaso would go and give us on the ground commentary!
